My weightloss has stopped already



Recommended Posts

I'll be 3 weeks out on Monday. Surgery was done on march 25th. I lost 10 lbs on pre op diet and 15 lbs since surgery, but that's it not a pound more. I'm trying my best to get As much Protein and fluids. Just surprised its stopped already.

Anyone else around my surgery date going through this to?

No sweety.... It's too soon to say you stop losing weight. I'm sure your losing weight if you measure your self when you started this journey & now you will see a difference. Continue drinking Water & following doctors order. Stay positive & stay focus I realized now that I'm 10 months post up that the scale is only a number & if you let it get to you-you will go nuts.

Your body is in shock. A lot of people stall between 2-4 weeks out. I did at 2 weeks out and it lasted for 2 weeks. Don't stress about it....just keep doing what you're suppose to do and it will start again.

I stalled for 3 weeks when I was 3 weeks out. It freaked me out. I've noticed that whenever the scale stops moving, I seem to lose inches. I call it my body rearranging itself. I'm 8 months out and list 2 pounds in all of March. So far I've lost 8 pounds in April. Your body just needs a break to adjust. Having little stalls gives you more time for your skin to snap back. It's a good thing and perfectly normal. Totally frustrating though.

I lost 27 straight out of surgery then nothing for three weeks then started again I figured I was still swollen and healing. I don't stress out about the stalls it happens to everyone your body has to adjust this was MAJOR new plumbing .

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
